Terry,

Interesting. I use emacs but I'll keep this in mind.

Regards,

Thanks, Tony. I was close, but still too far away.


This only shows you the major version. There have been many updates to 
Tcl/Tk in "minor" releases, including lots of rework on Tk internals. 
Therefore, you need the patchlevel. YOu can get this by


root.eval('info patchlevel')

Apfelkiste:Test chris$ python3
Python 3.6.1 |Anaconda 4.4.0 (x86_64)| (default, May 11 2017, 13:04:09)
[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 6.0 (clang-600.0.57)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> import tkinter
 >>> root=tkinter.Tk()
 >>> root.eval('info patchlevel')
'8.5.9'


Or run IDLE, select Help > About IDLE and the patchlevel is displayed.

(urks, I'll have to upgrade. 8.5.9 on OSX is seriously broken)
